WOOD ALCOHOL.
The Wonderful Properties Found In the
Forest Monarchs and Distilled for
Industrial Uses.
Free Lance.

Free Lance.
Perhaps the most interesting ot
all manufacturing processes is the
distillery of wood alcohol from the
vapor and smoke of charcoal ovens
This is a new invention, and one
that is attracting wide spread atten.
tion. This is new invention. and
one that is attracting widespread at.
tention. The vast consumption OF
charcoal throughout the country in
the manufacture OF the fine grades Of
iron is steadily increasing, and any
means of reducing the cost of its
manufacture tends to substitute this
high grade of iron for the inferior ar
fticle produced by coke furnaces. IT
is claimed that this new process will
materially reduce the cost of char
coal iron by manufacturing from re-
fuse material such articles as will
command ready sale at prices suffi-
cient to defray all the expenses of
producing the charcoal. The process
is somewhat as follows:
In burning wood to charcoal. or. in
the dry distillation of wood, the va
pors that are thrown off are CON
densed into liquid called pyrolig-
uous acid, which contains wood tar.
acetic acid and wood alcohol; the tar
being separated by precipitation.
Lime is then added to the liquor to
neutralize the acid, and all is run
into stills where the alcoholic part is
distilled of, and the residue is
brought down by evaporation to crys-
tails of acetate of lime.
The alcohol sells readily for 90
cents per gallon, and the acetate of
lime commands a good price, while
the tar is used In the factory as
fuel.
Thus it will be seen that three sepe-
rate and distinct articles are produced
in the manufacture of the charcoal and
the proceeds of the sale of these pro-
ducts more than pays all the expenses
andleaves the charcoal a net profit to
the manufacturer.
One cord Of wood will produce
from As to GO bushels of charcoal.
from 80 to l25 pounds of acetate of
lime and about three gallons Of wood
alcohol.
This alcohol is shipped to Buffalo,
N. Y, where it is refined, and meets
q ready sale for use In the arts. The
acetate of lime is used in the corro-
sion OF lead and copper and in setting
the colors in cotton fabrics and Of

Many diseases, especially those OF the

daily renewed mental exhaustion.
Business avocations often involve an
amount oi mental wear and tear very
prejudicial to physical health, and the
professions, il arduously pursued, are
no less destructive to brain and nerve
tissue. 1t is one OF the most important
attributes OF Hostetter's Stomach Bit
tiers, and it compensates for this undue
loss OF tissue, and that it imparts new
energy to the brain and nerves. The
rapidity with which it renews weakened

remarkable, and shows that its invigor-

WASHINGTON, November 1.-THE
following is the Presidents letter to
Commissioner Sparks:
EXECUTIVE MANSION,
WASHINGTON, Nov. 10, 1875
"WM. J. SPARKs--Dear Sir: have
read your letter of resignation left with
me to-day, and also the communication
addressed by you to the Secretary of
the Interior, accompanying the same.
In the present situation l do not feel
called upon to determine the merits
of the controversy which has arisen
between the Secretary and yourself,
further than to say that my impression
touching the legal questions involved
incline me to reply, as l naturally
would do even if l had not an impress
sion of my own upon the judgment OF
the Secretary. 1t presents a case OF
Interpretation where two perfectly
honest men may well differ. The
operations of the Land Department
and your jealous endeavor to
save and protect the public lands
from settlers in good faith, induce
me to believe that you will be pleased
to receive assurance that this policy,
upon which all are agreed, will con-
tinue to be steadfastly pursued, limit
ed and controlled, however, by law
and judgment of the courts. by which
we may at times be unwillingly re-
strained, but which we cannot and
ought not to resist. l desire to heart
lily acknowledge the value Of your SER
vices in the improved administration
of the land department, which has
been reached, and to assure you OF
my appreciation of the rugged and I'M
sullied integrity which has character
lied your official conduct. am con-
strained to accept the resignation you
tender with assurances of my contin--
ued friendly feeling toward you, and
with the earnest wish that wherever
the future way of life may lead, COM
plete success and satisfaction may
await you. Thanking you for the
pleasing and complimentary express
sions with which you close your letter,

Powers and Objects OF the Pres
ent Commission.
WASHINGTON, November 17.-Some
confusion exists as to the function Of
the Fisheries Commission, which is
about to meet here. The present Com
mission comes together with n, other
power than that of free conference
upon a question which has practi-
cally been an open one as long
this country has had existence. Briefly
stated, it has been from the beginning
the claim of the United States thai
whatever privileges the rights with
Great Britain recognized as due to
Americans, were original rights, and
were not in any sense grants OF
concessions for which something
could be demanded in return,
In other words, when the territory
once under control of Great Britain
was divided the partition related to
land alone, the rights upon water re-
naming common to the vessels Of
both nations. This the Britons
HAVE ALWAYS DENIED.
The treaties and arrangements have
always before been makeshifts, Sc
curing recognition OF our rights one
way or another, but merely for the
time being, while postpon-
ing the main question Indefinitely.
The present Commission may arrive
at an Interpretation of the existing
treaties, exactly defining the rights Of
Americans, or finding that impossible,
may agree upon some notifications to
be recommended to the treaty making
it branch of the two governments,
in either of which cases the Commits
sion will have accomplished
THE PURPOSE OF ITS CREATION,
The Commission cannot deal under
its present powers with the question
of commercial union with Canada,
though it is not impossible that the
subject may be referred to it by the
two Governments before its labors are
ended.

Yesterdays Session Of the Ma,
tfOnal League.

| Il CbtCIudy'B SC88lOA u the M
tiOnal League.
NEW York, November 1.-THE
National League was in secret session
all day long. President Young to.
night announces the following results
Of the session:
Section 81 amended as follows: Each
club shall have exclusive control oil
its own grounds, but the home club
shall pay the visiting club for each
championship game played on said
grounds 25 per cent. of the receipts for
general admission, provided, however.
that when such per centage shall be
less than $3.50 the home club shall pay
the visiting club that sum.
N E Young was elected President !;
W. A. Nimmick, Pittsburg, E. X.
Stearn, Detroit, A. H. Sowden, Bos-
ton, and w. f. Hewitt, Washington,
directors. A resolution introduced by
Spaulding, of Chicago, and adopted,
was as follows:
Resolred, That the League members
of the Board of Arbitration be in
structed to vote in favor of permitting
minor leagues to protect their clubs
and reserve their players under such
rules and conditions as said board
may deem proper.
Mr.. Billings. of Boston, offered Mr..
Stearns $l2, 200 for Richardson and
Thompson to-day, but was told that
$40, 900 would not buy them.
THE RIVAL CLANS MEET.
During the afternoon a notice was
sent to President Ward that the
Brotherhood League would meet him
and his associates this evening.
Ward, Brouthers and Hanlon were on
hand at 8 o'clock with their coun-
sci. The question was made
whether the Brotherhood would
interfere with the reserve sale
or salary contract and what modi-
fication was asked for. Ward, as
spokesman for the Brotherhood,
thought that the League should rec
ognize the Brotherhood, and made a
motion, which was adopted, that a
committee be appointed to confer
with them. The result of the confer
ence will be presented tomorrow.
AN UNEXPECTED RESULT.
